Awww, he’s such a faithful friend.
“Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas is still mum on whether he will be running for president in 2016, but he believes President Benigno Aquino III deserves a longer term,” reports Kathlyn dela Cruz on ABS-CBNnews.com.
In an exclusive interview with Lynda Jumilla on ANC’s Beyond Politics, Roxas said, “Kung ako lang ang tatanungin—at ito walang pahintulot sa Pangulo ito, wala ring konsultasyon sa partido ko ito, ito ako lang ito—dapat mas mahaba ang termino ni Pangulong PNoy kasi nakita na natin kung saan niya tayo dinala (If it were up to me—and this isn’t endorsed by the President, nor have I consulted our party mates, this is just me—President PNoy should get a longer term because we really see where he’s taking us).”
Roxas pointed out that Aquino “has proven himself as clean, reformist leader who has done a lot for the Filipino people.”
